Every Shirt Cisco Ramon Wore Flash
Next week marks the return of ' The Flash ' to our television screens, and you know what that means: time for everybody's favorite dorky engineer, Cisco Ramon ( Carlos Valdes ) to update his wardrobe with some brand new awesome t-shirts!
Sure, we tuned in every week to watch Barry Allen save the day with his super speed, but it was Cisco who permanently wormed his way into our hearts with his love of science and goofy jokes -- both of which appeared on his chest on a regular basis, and often at the same time. Here are the shirts we hope make a return appearance for season 2, and the ones we think could probably stay in th closet for good:
- The 'This Is My Spot!' Shirt
The CW/Snorgtees
Cisco doesn't strike me as a 'Big Bang Theory' watcher -- mostly because he's, you know, an actual nerd, and they tend to be pretty dismissive of that show. So this obscure inside joke from the series, as represented by a Snorgtees shirt, feels off to me.
- The 'Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock' Shirt
The CW/ThinkGeek
But at least his 'Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock' shirt from ThinkGeek is pretty cool, I guess. Maybe his parents are buying these shirts for him or something?
- The 'Wait, I Think There's Something On That Shirt?' Shirt
The CW/Threadless
Oh, it's army men! Couldn't tell because Cisco had this Threadless tee hidden away. Boo that.
- The SeeSaw shirt
The CW/Threadless
Dorky science joke, check -- but this is not the Threadless shirt you want to wear when you've got a backpack strapped to you. I can't even see what's on it!
- The Tired Tire Shirt
The CW/Threadless
It's kind of hard to tell what this Threadless tee is from far away, and it's not NEARLY nerdy enough for our boy Cisco.
- The Kidrobot Shirt
The CW/Threadless
In my head Cisco isn't much of a Kidrobot person either (save for their amazing 'Adventure Time' figures), but this Threadless shirt of the toy company's mascot is pretty effin' cool, so it gets a pass.
- The 'Entropy Happens' Shirt
The CW
True statement (especially for scientists), but kind of a bland shirt -- so much so that we couldn't track it down anywhere except for Wayward Tees .
- The Astronaut Shirt
The CW
This shirt by Tastemakers used to have the astronaut duning a cosmic basketball, which is totally awesome. Why'd they get rid of that? Because Cisco isn't a sports person? He's also not a robot and he has a lot of robot shirts. I call shenanigans.
- The Caffeine Molecule shirt.
CW/ThinkGeek
This Thinkgeek tee is understated, but cute. But is Cisco even that much of a coffee drinker? I can count on one hand the number of times I've seen him in Jitters.
- The 'Space Invader' Shirt
The CW/Threadless
A good shirt to meet a badass superhero in, right? Thanks, Threadless !
- The 'Keep Calm and Han Shot First' Shirt
The CW/Teepublic
Yeah, that's right, Greedo can suck it! We're not sure where this shirt originated, but you can buy something like it at Teepublic .
- The 'Astrosmash' Shirt
The CW/CBS
Okay, actually? Considering that Sheldon wears this shirt on 'The Big Bang Theory' often, I think we're gonna have to suck it up and call Cisco a 'BBT' fan. But that's okay, because this shirt from the CBS store is rad.
- The Bow and Arrow Compass Thingy Shirt
The CW/Threadless
I am officially docking Cisco on this Threadless tee because he didn't wear it during the 'Flash'/'Arrow' crossover. For shame , Mr. Ramon.
- The Oh My God Look At All These TV Screens Shirt
The Cw/Threadless
From Threadless , of course. Ramon sure likes t-shirts with lots of busy stuff on 'em.
- The Nintendohead Shirt
The CW/Threadless
AKA, totally what baby Cisco Ramon was like via a Threadless t-shirt.
- The Crapton of Video Game Controllers Shirt
The CW/Threadless
If there's two things Cisco likes in his t-shirts, it's old timey video game references and giant arranged piles of stuff. This one from Threadless is both. Good on ya, Cisco.
- The 'Burgerman' Shirt
The CW/Threadless
This Threadless tee has an adorable burger in gym socks on it. If you're wondering why Cisco would love this, you're clearly not a human with eyeballs. Eat your heart out, Big Belly Burger!
- The Duck In An Inner Tube Shirt
The CW/Threadless
Why? Because Threadless , that's why.
- The 'Ceci N'est Pas Un Pipe' Shirt
The CW/Threadless
It's a video game reference and and art history reference, all in one Threadless shirt! Good job, Ramon.
- The 'Dinosaurs Vs. Robots Vs. Aliens' Shirt
The CW/Threadless
Should we be concerned abot how much money Cisco spends at Threadless ? Not when his shirts are FULL OF LASERS AND ROBOTS, we shouldn't.
- The Conductor Shirt
The CW/Imaginary Foundation
I'm basically in awe of this Imaginary Foundation shirt. No surprise Cisco has more than a few of these.
- The 'Event Horizon' shirt.
The CW/Threadless
A stylish and surprisingly prescient pick from Threadless , especially considering the way the season ends. Maybe Cisco's secret metahuman power is that he's fashion psychic?
- The Holy Crap Look At That Shirt
The CW/The Imaginary Foundations
Man, would you just get a look at this thing? It's gorgeous. Mad props to The Imaginary Foundation for designing it.
- The 'I Bet Cisco Likes 'Doctor Who'' Shirt
The CW/Imaginary Foundation
Hey, that's what I think of when I see this other Imaginary Foundation shirt.
- The 'Adventure Time' Shirt
The CW/Cartoon Network
Of COURSE Cisco loves 'Adventure Time.' Of course he does. And this J.C. Penny shirt is perfect for him -- although good luck finding it in stores now.
- The 'Bravest Warriors' Shirt
The CW/Cartoon Hangover
HE'S WEARING A CATBUG SHIRT THAT IS THE BEST CHARACTER ON THAT SHOW FULL STOP. I love you, Cisco. It used to be available on WeLoveFine, and you can still grab the same design on wallets and bags.
Sabrina Carpenter e Rowan Blanchard
- The Lightsaber Narwhals Shirt
The CW/Threadless
It's impossible not to squeal with glee when looking at this shirt full of Starwhals. Nar Wars? Either way, Threadless is just the best.
- The Google Map Galaxy Shirt
The CW/Threadless
Even more than the Narwhal shirt, this Threadless tee is the quintessential Cisco Ramon garment -- it's totally willing to make a super nerdy, detailed joke, but with one eye on the big fancy scientific picture. And he wears it a lot. If he hasn't died once already I'd say he should be buried in it, but that feels wrong.
